PDC

Not as straight forward as it sounds but a nice little 'pocket rocket' 

This is what you get if you cross a UH McCormick MC130 with a Britains MF 6290

A quick post on the upcoming Puma CVX 230 - I'm not sure it looks quite right. The cab seems to be angled backwards rather than forwards and the curve of the bonnet doesn't seem quite right....am I being picky or are these valid criticisms. It's a shame as it seems to have lost the aggressive styling of the Puma in this model - but perhaps this is just a prototype. I would say the Britains model is a better shape then the UH one.

Looking at those pictures I wouldn't say you're being picky

Try submerging them in really hot water first

Looking good Peter

If all goes to plan i will have kits and a small number of built up tractors for sale at Spalding in October

I have made the bonnet in such a way the when glued on it will help to hold the tractor together where it has been shortened

The kit will include bonnet,grill,exhaust and decals, it should retail between £10 and £15

I have adapted a Britains 6140 bonnet to fit on a shortened UH MF 3080 The pictures show my bonnet which is now ready to be sent away for casting

I will have sprayer kits next week and will post them up in the 'For Sale' section

Where where where!!!?!?!?!? 

The 630 is the second smallest Lexi with 5 walkers so it's probably equivalent to the 530 - from memory so I could be totally wrong!

/malc.

The route home takes me from Wattisham to Bramford via Somersham

I think the farmers had lexion 520's and one had a 430 \

Saw three neighbouring farms on the way home from work trying out their new Claas Lexion 630's what model did this replace \

I would assume that as the standard Siku T8 is not available yet this prototype of the limited edition for the LCN show is based on a Siku prototype

  looks good, any plans for a front tank?

I think it would be good addition and i've got something in mind

Very nice Paul, I've thought about doing the same but with the booms off a Britains Chafer sprayer.

If? I can still buy the siku booms in I may get some resin kits made

Nice one mate

I tracked down an old Siku Fendt Xylon with sprayer and got the sprayer on the MB Trac

Still drewling whit those photo´s of the steepnose!

See some things i aleady want to chainge on it

Is this as big as the 5455 steepnose Mark or a lot smaller (in dymensions)

I think the price would be the first thing to change UH tractors seem to have doubled in price, other manufacturers have increased in price but not doubled

Oh I don't like the sound of that

My new Merc is the only Auto i've driven but I find it superb   i think with your type of work you would just flick it in manual and prompt gearshifts yourself,i did use the power button on a hill from a standing start at 44ton the otherday   the software make it use everygear and change the gear ar 2100rpm   wish i had video so i could film it

You probally have said Marcus, but what gearbox has your Scania got??

From my trip to the Great Yorkshire Steam Rally today from Peter "convo" Hardy:

John Deere 5720 2wd Massey Ferguson 8270 Xtra duals front and rear. Both based on Siku Farmer+ models.

Whilst the following arrived through the post recently:

Britains Case IH 1056XL

Universal Hobbies New Holland T6020 ( blue loader )

Universal Hobbies New Holland T6090

ROS New Holland T7060 rear duals

Good stuff Paul, I need to sell some more decals now as I had an A4 sheet done
